It’s Tuesday! I’m still a week behind on the Top 10 Tuesday challenges from the Broke and the Bookish, which does seem to be about how my life is running right now. I do want to figure out what books I most want to read next year – but for right now, I’m taking a look back at some of the new authors I read this year. I’m skipping the picture book authors for now, as that would be a whole top 10 of its own.
Middle Grade
- Adam Gidwitz
- Kimberly Brubaker Bradley
- Robin Stevens
- Rita Williams-Garcia
Teen
- Alwyn Hamilton
- Jenny Han
- Tanita S. Davis
Adult
- Ann Leckie
- Marjorie Liu and Sana Takeda
- Zen Cho
It looks like I’m short on new middle grade fantasy authors, that I read more contemporary realistic teen fiction than usual this year- but true to form, my favorite new adult authors all write speculative fiction.
Who or what were your favorite book/author discoveries this year?

Monstress and Sorcerer to the Crown are both books I’d like to read, and probably Rebel of the Sands as well. And your middle grade books look fun, too!
Thank you! Let me know what you think if you read any of these!

So much love for Monstress! I can’t wait for the next volume. I need to read Ann Leckie’s books because I’ve heard good things from trusted bloggers. I’m also curious about Alwyn Hamilton and Zen Cho.
